Enterkd  according  to  Act  oV  Congress,  in  the  year  1850,  by

PREFACE. 


At  the  request  of  many  Friends,  I  have  been  induced  to 
publish  in  Book  form  my  Thermometrical  Record  for  the 
last  Ten  Years. 

In  offering  this  little  work  to  the  Public,  I  do  not  put  it  forth 
as  a  complete  Meteorological  Register,  but  simply  as  a  faithful 
transcript  of  the  daily  record  kept  at  my  establishment,  25^ 
WaU  Street. 

To  every  individual  who  remarks  the  great  and  sudden 
changes  of  temperature  in  our  climate,  this  volume  will  be 
found  extremely  interesting  and  useful ;  for,  by  referring  to  the 
tables,  the  state  of  the  Thermometer  upon  any  dav  during  the 
last  ten  years  can  be  immediately  ascertained. 

In  addition  to  the  record,  there  will  be  found  interesting 
tables  of  a  "  General  View  of  the  State  of  the  Barometer  and 
Thermometer"  for  the  years  1847,  1848,  and  1849;  also,  a 
"  General  View  of  the  Weather  "  for  the  same  years,  and  the 
dates  of  the  Closing  and  Opening  of  Navigation,  &c..  Sic. 

A.  J.  Dblatour.

LONG    DAYS. 

At  Berlin  and  London,  the  longest  day  has  sixteen  and  a  half 
hours.  At  Stockholm  and  Upsal,  the  longest  has  eighteen  and  a  haH" 
hours.  At  Hamburg,  Dantzic,  and  Stettin,  the  longest  has  seventeea 
hours,  and  the  shortest  seven.  At  New  York,  the  longest  has  fifteen 
hours  and  thirteen  minutes.  At  St.  Petersburgh  and  Tobolsk,  the 
longest  has  nineteen  and  the  shortest  five  hours.  At  Torneo,  in  Fin- 
land, the  longest  day  has  twenty-one  hours  and  a  half.  At  Wander- 
bus,  in  Norway,  the  day  lasts  from  the  21st  of  May  to  the  23d  of 
July,  without  interruption  ;  and  at  Spitzbergen,  the  longest  lasts  three

TEMPERATURE 

OF 

NEW  YORK  AND   CALIFORNIA  COMPARED. 


The  statement  below,  copied  from  the  Records,  from  the  1st  to  the 
12th  day  of  November,  1849,  kept  at  San  Francisco,  California,  and 
New  York  City,  is  interesting,  showing,  as  it  does,  a  comparison  of 
Thermometers  ia  both  cities.  It  will  be  observed  that  they  differ  but 
slightly  ;  and  in  some  days  there  was  but  a  fractional  difference  in 
the  mean  temperature,  and  on  one  occasion,  November  7lh,  57^ 
degrees  was  the  mean  temperature  of  both  places,  and  the  average 
mean  temperature  of  the  twelve  days  varied  only  4  of  a  degree.  We 
are  told,  however,  that  in  California  the  mercury  frequently  reaches 
the  great  height  of  120^,  while  here  it  seldom  rises  to  100^.

COID    WEATHER    IN    JUNE. 

A  PRIVATE  letter  rrom  Franconia,  New  Hampshire,  dated  June  10th, 
1848,  says  : — "  There  was  a  very  severe  frost  here  on  the  night  of  the 
1st  of  June.  On  the  morning  of  the  2d  the  thermometer  indicated 
28  degrees.  Corn,  beans,  and  all  tender  vegetables  were  cut  down 
on  the  ground,  and  the  earth  was  frozen  to  the  depth  of  half  an  inch." 

A    CONTRAST. 
The  temperature  in  this  city  for  the  first  four  days  of  June,  1848, 
was  as  follows  : —

FRANCONIA    AND    THE    THERMOMETER. 

It  is  stated  that  the  thermometer  at  Franconia,  which  is  situated 
near  the  head-waters  of  the  Merrimack,  in  Grafton  county,  N.  H., 
rose  in  the  shade,  on  Saturday,  the  10th  .Tuly,  1848,  to  the  astonishing 
height  of  one  hundred  and  two  degrees,  which  is  several  degrees 
above  blood  heat.  This  place  is  noted  for  extremes  of  heat  and  cold, 
the  mercury  at  the  iron  works  here  having  sunk  a  few  years  since  as 
low  as  forty  degrees  below  zero,  at  which  it  freezes,  thus  rendering  a 
spirit  thermometer  necessary  at  this  place,  and  occasioning  the  re- 
mark from  Jack  Downing,  that  "  the  weather  would  have  been  colder 
had  the  thermometer  tube  been  longer."  This  makes  the  range,  or 
difference  of  temperature  here  (102-{-40)  142  degrees,  which  is  not 
very  much  less  than  the  extreme  range  ever  experienced  by  travellers. 

Belzoni,  in  his  travels  in  Egypt,  found  the  highest  degree  of  heat  in 
a  cave,  in  summer,  125  degrees  ;  and  Captain  Parry,  the  arctic  navi- 
gator, who  voyaged  as  far  as  82^  degrees  north  latitude,  and  wintered 
at  74  degrees  north  latitude,  tells  us  the  lowest  degree  he  experienced 
was  55  below  zero,  thus  making  the  difference  of  the  extreme  limits 
trod  by  man,  or  the  range  for  the  globe  (125-{-55)  180  degrees. 

The  range  for  this  city  is  probably  about  120^,  the  highest  for  ten 
years  past  having  been  99°,  and  the  lowest,  we  suppose,  about  26° 
below  zero.  Hence  New  York  is  very  properly  said  to  have  the 
summer  of  Rome  and  the  winter  of  Copenhagen  ;  while  at  Honoluluj 
in  the  Sandwich  Islands,  the  temperature  seldom  varies  more  than  ten 
degrees — from  70  to  80.
